[LaurelRidgeR]

Shuuuut up kitty that's my pepperoni!!  Hahahaha so awesome

[fishbiodadX4]

i have watched many of your videos. i just want to say that i have made some amazing deer summer sausage from your excellent videos. thank you. i tasted some deer snack sticks that were pickled and they were very good. have you experimented with this? if so, i would be greatly appreciated if you made a video on that. keep up the great work.

[cornerstoneproductio]

Excellent job on your video, not to mention good pacing on your narration(like the Kitty cat!)

Where did you get your Texas swing music love it!!

[TeamHutton]

I am going to try this as soon as I find the stuffing tubes to fit my grinder, but can you tell me how long to dehydrate them after they come out of the oven and do they need to cool before dehydrating. Im really anxious

[funnyanimals10123]

how much meat did you use for all that?

[putodedago]

THAT LOOKS SO GOOD I GATA LERN HOW TO DO THAT <;)

[bigbubba8888]

i found with your recipes the good but get alot of shrinkage i know with some its ok but i found out once you take out of the oven right away put it in an ice water bath you will not get any shrinkage at all

[PureWhite91]

lol ight cartman

[VelociraptorR6]

How long do you bake in the oven and at what temp.? thank you. great video. huge help.

[tellmyfather]

[dntmondragon]

Have a great day

@dntmondragon She's a beggar! Always mooching or yapping. No matter how much I try to keep her out, she is always on about something and if I spoke cat I'd know what the devil it was.

Thx (-:

[MysticKnight38]

Good video. If you would like to increase the wrinkle on the snake sticks you can shock freeze them. After they are cooked either in the oven as you did or by hot smoking leave them on a cooling rack and pan and pop them in the deep freeze for an hour or so.

[nolanmontess87]

what should i use for the meat could i grind up a roast or two for this??

[rldel149]

@nolanmontess87

Sure, they can be stiff without a pretty decent porting of fat, pork is best. If using der, try the 50:50 mix or if you can find it in the grocery store getsome cheap 9high fat) ground (un-spiced) pork and mix that w/ground deer shoulders.

[Mike990920]

You got a favourite Brat recipe?

[rldel149]

Yea I guess, but I don't or should I say never taped a brat batch trying to do something off the beaten path. Still haven't done the Braunschweiger video yet.

[msebow]

great video and recipe...I will give it a try! Do you add pork trimmings to the venison or will the venison stick together enough on it's own?

[rldel149]

Deer won't bind w/out a binder. The binder can be a fat substitute, soy protein, ground pork, pork fat, even ground beef, etc. As you would expect, they all taste a tad different with the exact same spice. After all, the meat is the main ingredient. I do think it is better w/pork fat or so and lots of salt.

[baddogonline]

I think only two of us got the South Park impression... Loved it!!

[hawkdlb06]

can you buy morton tender quick from any old store say like wal mart.. or is it something you have to order on line, because i know morton makes salt so i would think it would be at the store, i live in iowa and we have hy-vee and i see the salt there

[rldel149]

Probably not, there isn't as much call for it as used to be. Grocery stores used to carry it and any who carry Morton products should be able to get it. If not it can be ordered via internet.

[norcalhotboats]

So when you make the jerky snack sticks you do have to put them in some kind of casings?

[rldel149]

collagen casings

[norcalhotboats]

I was reading on some of the other directions you dont have to use a casing when making like the 3/8 sticks of just deer. Just use a shooter gun or the meat grinder with a nozzle. ???? Does that work? (im by far no expert)

[rldel149]

It might. The small casings take a very small tube. That makes the sausage batter hard to squish out.

[hujabuga]

Ok, this might sound dumb but, are the casings you use edible?

[rldel149]

yes, mahogany beef collagen casings.

[Go5ooh]

Great videos! I just processed my mule deer, and I am ready to try some sausage because of your videos. Thanks from Nv!

[rldel149]

Thanks, I have to tell you, Im envious of you Id like to get me one of those big eared white-rumped rascals one of these days.

Try these recipes in small batches at first and see how you like them and what, if anything you want to tweak to your liking. One of the points to making your own is getting it precisely the way you want it.

Season opens for whitetail next weekend and unless my neck and shoulder heal between now and then - I may miss opening day for the first time in years.

[teppohc]

I am truly appreciative of all your sausage recipes. I used this one almost to the letter on one batch and it turned out fantastic. Second time around though, I made a 20lb batch (15 lb venison and 5 lb wild boar). I added some cayenne pepper, and I do mine on the smoker. Thanks again for a great tutorial!!!

[rldel149]

Thanks, I add a bit more salt sometimes as a variant. Traditional pepperoni is a dried product and they use huge volumes of salt in the process.

[marco1221911]

Hi, Ive been making jerky for 19 years now and want to get into the snack stick side. Great vid and also thanks for your tips and recipe. I have a question. If your using a curing agent why do you say "refrigerate" the sticks when done? I use sodium nitrate with my jerky and its cured and safe. Isnt tender quick a sodium nitrate based curing agent? Anyway, great video!

Mark

[rldel149]

Because a "cured" sausage is not necessarily a "shelf stable" sausage. Cure is a way to help knock down the number of live organisms in a product while shelf stable means no refrigeration is required.

[marco1221911]

Thanks for your answer! I listened to more and learned that you make it shelf stable by additional dehydration. Im gonna try it and I love fennel seeds. I think they give a great flavor to a meat stick. Thanks again.

[xdiducktapex]

i love the cartman impersination

SHUT UP KITTY! MY PEPPERONI!

[gaudetm2]

tried some today at my mother in-laws place, had no idea it was deer until i had alread stuffed my face, sooo good. great cartman impression by the way lol.

[rldel149]

#$%# cat messing up my take. I just can't work with animals... :) thanks

[TripleActionOutdoors]

Good Job!

[naughty00e]

[thebibleisfiction]

[ronin550]

WOW your vids are awsome im relly thinking i can do this on my own instead of paying a processor! thanks a million! question so is it the wraps that make it into the jerky and sausage texture if ya know what I mean?

[sn0306]

very very good

regards

[rldel149]

Thank you sn0306.

[rldel149]

Yes it is cooked.

[rippanation]

this had me hungry and i am going to have a go at making some, plus the cartman kitty bit made me and the wife laugh nice one.

[rldel149]

Try Allied-Kenco in Texas, Tell Cody some guy in Tennessee sent you. He'll likely have something.

[Kairis12]

whos ginny?

[timbotide]

Can you tell me where I might buy a stuffer tube small enough to work with the snack stick casings. My stuffer is a Grizzly and is built just like the one you use in this video.

[casiopilot]

can u use ather meats

[rldel149]

I suspect so although beef deer and pork are all I have personnaly tried.

[saberj2x]

[itscooltogotocms]
